Planning Application Reviewers

We are looking for volunteers to help us review planning applications and submit comments about active travel, impacts on biodiversity, and the energy efficiency of dwellings. Can be done from home.

What's involved?

• Help us to decide which planning applications to respond to
• Help us to assemble evidence and submit planning objections or comments.
• Liaise with interested individuals and community groups.
• Monitor new developments during and after the construction phase.
• Contribute to PeCAN’s responses to ad hoc consultations about planning policy, such as on Local Plans

What's the time commitment?

• As much or as little as you wish.

Skills

• Prior experience of planning is not essential.
• An interest in either promoting cycling/walking, or some background knowledge about buildings emissions or nature and biodiversity would be helpful.
